Yes, that's the problem.

They haven't gone anywhere, they just don't appear anymore because of the path prefix being set to IMAP.

I've configured this, but I need to have my other folders visible in Mail.app (would have been nice if the OP mentioned that they would disappear after this mod, but there you go...). How do I undo what I've just done? Can I just delete the two IMAP folders I created and remove the IMAP path prefix in Mail prefs?

Yes, just walk backwards through the instructions to undo.

You can also make your previous "folders" visible again by prepending "IMAP/" to the start of all your existing labels.

Sorry about the confusion. I mistakingly omitted the fact that previous sidebar folders would be hidden. I guess I figured since it was obvious to me, it would be obvious to everyone. It appears you figured it out, though.
